Assemblymember Cheryl R. Brown – AD 47“Starting next month, millions of uninsured Californians will have access to affordable, quality healthcare through Covered California. Our state has worked very hard to implement the Affordable Care Act, and I’m looking forward to the 47th Assembly District taking advantage of this valuable opportunity because our District is in desperate need of affordable healthcare services.”

Assemblymember Luis Alejo – AD 30“This year in his State of the Union address, President Obama called for a raise in the minimum wage as one way to build new ladders of opportunity into the middle class, but even with widespread support, Congress has not raised the minimum wage. Once again, California is leading the effort to rebuild our middle class.”

Assemblymember Kevin Mullin – AD 22“California is home to over one quarter of the immigrants who live in the United States. We have a civic obligation to ensure our laws adequately protect all people from exploitation and workplace retaliation based on immigration status.”

Assemblymember Roger Dickinson – AD 7“AB 169 will keep non-rostered, unsafe handguns out of the hands of people who don't have a legitimate and lawful reason to own them. By limiting the guns available for sale we can further protect our families and our communities from gun violence.”

Assemblymember Isadore Hall, III – AD 64“Today’s approval by the California Legislature to name the western span of the Bay Bridge the Willie L. Brown, Jr. Bridge is a fitting and worthy tribute to one of California’s greatest public servants… Willie Brown personifies the California Dream: that with hard work, fearless determination and faith, anything can be accomplished. This designation is only a small token of respect and gratitude to one of California’s greatest sons.”

Assemblymember Rich Gordon - AD 24“I commend the Governor on his leadership throughout the budget process, and my colleagues for their commitment to striking a balance between fiscal prudence and restoring critical state services. California is indeed well on its way to recovery.”

Assemblymember Luis Alejo - AD 30"The issue of unsafe drinking water is not confined to one, or a few, regions. A recent report published by the State Water Resources Control Board shows that 21 million people in California rely on contaminated groundwater as their source of drinking water. This is a completely unacceptable figure."
